PORCELAIN VENEERS - Completely transform your smile
Veneers improve the appearance of chipped, worn, irregularly shaped and heavily filled teeth, and achieve that beautiful white smile you have always dreamt of. Veneers are often shown on makeover programmes because they can completely transform your smile. Veneers are thin shells of porcelain that are custom made and bonded to your teeth. They usually involve very minimal tooth reduction, and are incredibly strong and durable. They have a very natural appearance. With regular examinations and good oral hygiene measures, veneers generally last around 10 years or more.
Placement of the veneers
Before the finished porcelain veneers can be fitted to your teeth, we must remove a thin layer of enamel from the front of the teeth. This makes space for the veneers and helps bond the porcelain to the teeth by roughening the bonding surface. A thin layer of dental adhesive is then applied to the teeth, and the porcelain veneers are placed. The process can sometimes take several visits, however in select cases, you may not require any preparation of your teeth.

“Initially I was wearing dentures and I had a lot of discoloured fillings, I felt like I wanted something more permanent so I discussed this with my usual dentist Sarah, she advised me to return for a full consultation with her. In my consultation we discussed different options for permanent solutions for my teeth and also how to make them look more aesthetically pleasing.
We decided to go ahead with replacing my denture with bridges, and also to do crowns and a veneer to make everything look uniform. All of the treatment I received from start to finish was excellent, and I constantly felt at ease as Sarah was very good at explaining each step to me which was very reassuring as I am usually quite a nervous patient. I am very happy with my results and I have already recommended the practice to family and friends”.
